Nothing, but it’s not a programming language
Siegfried, (edited ) But the meme says developer, not programmer… wouldn’t that be ok then?
thiccdiccnicc, 
The first step to being a developer seems to be learning how to put down other devs :(
Amends1782, What is it actually then?
shuzuko, It’s a markup language. In the simplest explanation, a programming language describes a process (what does the thing do) while a markup language describes a structure (how is the thing supposed to be displayed). There’s more to it than that, but someone else can get into deeper if they want, it’s beyond me lol
Dirk, 
a markup language describes a structure (how is the thing supposed to be displayed)
A markup language does not define how something is to be displayed, that’s what a styling language is for (usually CSS). A markup language semantically defines what certain parts of the created document are.
shuzuko, Lol that’s fair, but since those words in that combination barely even make sense to me I tried to dumb it down more and ended up being wrong 😂
I’m the idiot who searches stack for code and copies and pastes it into the project so no one should listen to me anyway.
Amends1782, I knew it was a markup language, but didn’t know the diff between the two since I’m not a programmer. Thanks
BeefPiano, Diogenes throws a Ruby on Rails model over the fence and shouts “Behold a markup language!”
Cort, Psshaw. I programmed my Myspace page with that language: checkmate.
Anti_Face_Weapon, Funny meme, but I don’t think we should gatekeep. HTML is the path to HTML5 and thus JavaScript.
Tak, 
Do we gatekeep Java though?
Anti_Face_Weapon, No. But we do get to hate Java.
bjoern_tantau, 
coding != programming
retiolus, 
xcuse Shakespeare
mino, 
Unrelated: anyone knows what this template is called? I can never seem to find it or describe it intelligently enough to search engines.
dangblingus, civil war elevator?
runner_g, Captain America Elevator meme.
mino, Thanks!
i_stole_ur_taco, If you’re hired as a developer and the only tasks you’re getting assigned are HTML, are you a developer?
I think rather than the tools and languages you use, titles should be determined by the kinds of memes you consume.
EvolvedTurtle,
Zerush, 
Does Scratch count?
EvolvedTurtle, I personally think it does It’s very good at teaching you the fundamentals
turbowafflz, Ooh, I’ve had a terrible idea, let’s make an actual programming language with html-like syntax, that sounds fun and not at all horrifying
bjoern_tantau, XSLT would like to have a word with you. “Arrays” start at 1.
MotoAsh, XML syntax, there’s at least ant scripts. They’re … pretty obnoxious to deal with.
BeefPiano, LISP with tags instead of open and close parens.
lseif, html + xml + this language = fully tag based stack
Mischala,
Raine_Wolf, Gods… This happens to me when I say I program in R.
benvars, 
I feel attacked
erogenouswarzone, 
I think op hasn’t heard of web components. Technically it requires js, but still it will replace react and angular and vue soon me thinks.
Holzkohlen, Nah, he fine. Now if he’d have said VBA, then it would be justified.
Haus, 
It's like when customers at West Marine dress up in outfits and call each other 'Captain.'
ivanafterall, 
AND! A little CSS.
